Effects of Molding Pressure on Mechanical and Sound Insulation Properties of Hybrid Composites Reinforced with a Core–Shell Structure Composed by Continuous Sisal and Carbon Fiber

Journal of Natural Fibers
Natural fiber has been widely used as reinforcement in polymer composites, and the excellent sound insulation and lower mechanical properties of natural fiber increased research interest in hybrid fiber-reinforced composites.

Toughening of wood particle composites—Effects of sisal fibers

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2006
AbstractSisal fibers were added to wood particle composites to enhance their toughness. The selected matrix was a commercial styrene diluted unsaturated polyester thermoset resin. Fracture tests were carried out using single‐edge notched beam geometries.

Fracture behavior of sisal fiber–reinforced starch‐based composites

Polymer Composites, 2005
AbstractThe fracture behavior of biodegradable fiber–reinforced composites as a function of fiber content under different loading conditions was investigated. Composites with different fiber content, ranging from 5 to 20 wt%, were prepared using commercial starch‐based polymer and short sisal fibers. Quasistatic fracture studies as well as instrumented

Processing and properties of natural fibers reinforced thermoplastic and thermosseting composites [PDF]

, 2013
In this work, three different natural fibers were studied and characterized, using optical and SEM microscopy. Woven fabrics of those reinforcement fibers were used to reinforce polyester and epoxy matrices and produce composite plates by vacum lay-up ...
